Penn Jillette Isn't Laughing at Obama's Weed War

Never one to mince words, magician/comedian/actor Penn Jillette had a few choice ones for the President's crackdown on potheads during a recent Penn's Sunday School

Do we believe, even for a second, anybody believe that if Obama had been busted for marijuana, under the laws that he condones, would his life have been better? … If he had been busted under his laws, he would have done hard fucking time. And if he had done time in prison, time in federal prison, time for his ‘weed' and ‘a little blow,' he would not be President of the United States of America. He would not have gone to his fancy ass college. He would not have sold books that sold millions and millions of copies and made millions and millions of dollars. He would not have a beautiful, smart wife. He would not have a great job. He would have been in fucking prison, and it's not a god damn joke! People who smoke marijuana must be set free. It is insane to lock people up.

Which is what makes this all the more entertaining. What, you'd rather watch normal people fall flat on their faces?

Please Do Not Smoke the Artwork

If you happen to be in the greater LA basin at any point between May 26 and June 9, be sure to stop by the Known Gallery and check out the Legolize It! collection. And remember to smoke before, not during, the tour. [Boing Boing]
